    In the letter from Scout to Jem, we see Scout's’ point of view and how she feels. It shows that she is sad that Boo gave them so much and they did not give him anything in return like a good neighbor should have.

    Herman Melville’s use of the central character in the famous short story, “Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street,” truly opens up the premise of this story’s central idea. Instead of Bartleby being the central character, he uses the lawyer as the narrator, who at the time, was the boss who employed Bartleby on Wall Street. Through the eyes of this character we can still be mystified by Bartleby, but truly feel the qualities and direct affect that Bartleby demonstrated on others and mostly the narrator. As the antagonist of this story, his attitude throughout is very calm and immobile making him a static character. This unique choice of the antagonist gives the narrator many opportunities to introduce the mysterious Bartleby, describe…

    If I could meet any character from one of the books we read this year, I would choose to meet Skye Miller from Thirteen Reasons Why. There are many unanswered questions about Skye, and we don’t know a lot about her. We know she’s an outcast and likes to avoid people. We know Clay used to have a crush on her in 8th grade too. She appears only a few times throughout the book, but we can infer Clay goes to help her after he goes after her in the hallway. The reason I would want to meet Skye is because we don’t know a great deal about her, but from what we do know, it’s easy to tell something has happened to her, similar to Hannah or Melinda’s situations. Seeing that, there are a plethora of questions I would ask her if I had the chance of meeting…
